Levi's Joins Gillette and 84 Lumber

Post by skb12172 »

In going SJW. Because there's no way gun owners would buy a lot of blue jeans, right?

I quit buying Levis when the quality went to shit years ago. I buy Carhartt’s almost exclusively now.

Haven't bought real Levi's since the 80's, and never will.

Have no experience with Carhart. Good?

Carhartt is excellent.

Going to be hard to boycott them more than I am now (zero is zero and all), but I guess it is good to know just in case.

Weren’t they already tromping around SWJ-central? I was pretty sure they were already with Nike and others on my ‘will not purchase, even secondhand’ list for some months now. Though if memory serves, that was a man-bashing episode, so this is just them putting out their dumpster fire with napalm.

I switched to Lee's some time ago. The pockets are wide enough that my clip on folder doesn't get in the way. They're also deep enough. And the 7 belt loops hold an IWB holster. And they're less expensive and wear better. Win all around over Levi's.
Note to self: start reading sig lines. They're actually quite amusing. :D

Not sure about their politics but the Duluth Trading company Fire hose pants are awesome. Very stiff day one, but after a washing or three, very comfortable.

The Flex fire hose are even better. Well I think so. :)

I have been wearing Riggs Workwear Ranger Pants (Wrangler) for years, and they are great.
